Writerman callout

Back in the day @Indystar,Writerman used to be the resident crank that I enjoyed reading. Hated Artest and swore he would be the downfall of the Pacers organization. Anybody know if he's around under a different name?

Re: Writerman callout

He came here (PD) when it was relatively new and then went over to a Spurs board and stirred the pot about something and then wanted 'us' (The PD forum collective) to come over there and defend him. I think most of us went over there and took a look and thought "We're not defending a troll" (because IMHO he was in the wrong and getting what he deserved) and left it alone. He got mad because nobody would get his back and left here in a hissy fit. I don't remember seeing him here again.

Didn't he change his name at the Star forum to something like "Bryhennien"?

Nuntius was right. I was wrong. Frank Vogel has retained his job.

Yup. That name change was after he was banned at RATS. I think (may be wrong) he got canned again. I VERY rarely lurk at RATS anymore, so I'm not completely sure. I hear him called out on RealGM from time to time.

Create an ignore list. I know it may seem unneighborly. But you're here to talk about the Pacers, not argue with someone who's just looking for an argument. Most of the regular users on here make use (at least occasionally) of the "Ignore" feature. Just go to "Settings" -> "Edit Ignore List" and add the names.

Re: Writerman callout

Now that I think about it, the thing about Writerman was he'd always argue with people about different Pacer game points when he'd not actually seen the game!

The discussion would go on for a couple of pages before one of the posters that knew that Writerman was rarely able to watch a game and was probably basing his argument on the game stats would ask point blank: "Did you even see the game?" Then he'd reply "No, but I will when I get the tapes in a couple of weeks" ....Too funny!
